Flyers aren’t just marketing tools - they’re great for special, personal occasions as well. With so many creative concepts used in party planning, it’s only natural that invites and messages go beyond envelopes and cards, too. You could throw a birthday party for a friend or a relative and outline the event details on a flyer, or you can wish someone a happy birthday through one. Either way, it really isn’t all that hard to make it unique and special, especially now that Canva offers a plethora of customizable templates you can get design inspiration from.

Simply replace the text on your chosen template with your own, or turn it into a unique work of art by utilizing Canva’s editing tools and media library. Find suitable elements for the occasion on the site: cakes, balloons, party hats--name it, the Canva library's got it. Each one you include in your flyer can be adjusted according to your preferences. Try out different angles, adjust the brightness, resize, stretch, and skew, or decrease the transparency and play up the rest of the details in your flyer. You can include original photos or stock photos, too. Upload images straight from your computer, or use the ones that are available in Canva’s library. Highlight your message and add a special twist to it by trying your hand at typography with the help of font faces and presets that are readily available.

When you’ve added the finishing touches, just save, download, and print or save, upload, and share. Customizing your own birthday flyer has never been this easy.
